It's easier to have just an Xbox or just a PlayStation but even then you'll miss out on a few exclusives. But not as many as if you only have a Nintendo console. --- https://media.giphy.com/media/l3vRn3I4UyDoKyWLC/giphy.gif <cite>SrRd_RacinG posted [p:948324213] in As a gamer...

Solar_Crimson 12/14/20 1:18:36 PM #2:	I use to be Nintendo-only for years, but then I got a PS2 basically for free from my old thrift store job (someone donated it that day), and later got a PS3 alongside my Wii. Had plans to get a Ps4, but never got around to it, and I might just skip it and go to the PS5 in a few years. I do still primarily game on Nintendo platforms, though. --- I often wonder if we are growing as a people... or in fact, regressing. <cite>Solar_Crimson posted [p:948324290] in As a gamer...

If they would just make a powerful console that rivals PS and Xbox then they would dominate them both easily.

I like my nintendo systems to play those nintendo exclusives you cannot get anywhere else, but online gaming on them just sucks so, so bad. The OG xbox got it right back in 2001, sony joined the party in 2006 with the PS3, but nintendo is just......still really sucking at that.

Maybe Smash can actually have good online. Continuing to release their systems without a goddamn ethernet port will forever be the dumbest thing they continue to do. Of course people like us will most likely buy a lan adapter or something like that to have stable connections, but your average joe isn't going to go through the effort of doing something like this, and then on top of that having to look up port forwarding, firewalls, and whatever else to help their terrible wi-fi connections. Drives me crazy how we have extremely fun games like smash and super mario maker 2, but nintendo's crappy online just.....hampers the experience so much. --- GTag:MadDogg730 PSN:lMadDogg NNID:xMadDoggx I bet my left nut on bloodstained ritual of the night being awesome...I like my left nut IGA, come through for me. <cite>MadDewg posted [p:948324866] in As a gamer...
